So, chapters have no way of knowing if their quota will be 40 or 50. So, if they have 50 legacies at pref and quota winds up being 42, then they cannot list all their legacies on the first bid list. Not the fault of the chapter. Just the way the system works.

Yeah....no. I'm quite aware of how RFM works. chapters with that many legacies have to make these decisions early on and estimate the probable quota so they don't end up with a legacy not getting a bid. For chapters with this issue, they wouldn't invite 50 legacies to pref. If their is a likelihood that they won't have space to guarantee them a bid, they get released before that is an issue. Have you heard of estimating? It's a pretty good way to keep from pissing off a lot of alumnae.
